The Way of Succession

Some people climb to the top just to overlook all living beings. Some people burn themselves down just to illuminate future generations. It is "All peoples practice together, and everyone is like a dragon." Or "In order to seek transcendence, the world will support one person." Two roads, from the same starting point, to opposite ends. After all the blood was shed, the truth was buried. Inheritance is stigmatized as betrayal, and resistance is pronounced as flight. The young man walked through the smoke-filled chasm, stepped over the bones of the barbarians, crossed the underworld of the ghosts, and waded through the abyss of the monsters. The road ahead is long, some people fell, some stood up, some waited silently, and some raised torches. If people are confused, just say this: "Heirs to the holy path will bring peace to the world."
